Reviews

ugg puddle not poodle


(3 stars)

I couldn't get the chapter called lessons. because the reader of this chapter kept calling the cat poodle when the cats named Ash puddle. at first I gave her the benefit of the doubt thinking that she could not pronounce the word puddle , but then she said it perfectly fine in the sentence right after. yet she kept calling the poor cat poodle.

very enjoyable old tale
